>>Hi >>This is Sally again, I sent scanModem MODEMDATA results last week, and they failed to work. If this message comes twice, it's 'cause I sent it before realizing maybe I have to re-subscribe in order for it to post, so its sent twice. >>I know now scanModem didnt work, same as Mandriva newly installed, as setup only 'sees' the (hard) videocard's sound section (ATI) which >>I am pretty sure Vista is not using for this Toshiba laptop's sound setup. The ATI is our graphics >>card which may have a sound area, but not in use according to SOUND PROPERTIES under control panel. >> >>There is another 'soft' sound card listed in Vista/Control Panel/Programs, made by Realtek, >>that the modem depends on, listed under /sound/control panel in vista. ScanModem isnt seeing it. >>I am calling it a 'soft' sound card, because its listed as a removable program Realtek Audio, along with the Toshiba Soft Modem. Apparently the Linux install isnt picking up the required Realtek to install, as its a software. So with no sound, how can the modem work? >>In Mandriva newly installed, it "detects" the ATI card as the sound card, when in Vista we >>use ATI only for video, and the sound for modem is REALTEK. In Mandriva, setup detected this ATI card, >>and auto-attempted to set up during install with --alsa driver snd_hda_intel, it fails to work for sound at all, in Linux. >>Probably because, its bypassed by this 'softsoundcard' in Toshiba's setup, entirely, or relies on this >>soft program for Realtek somehow which ModemData's fix misses. --alsa driver 'snd_hda_intel is also the one recommended by scanModem, on ModemData, but yet we have no sound in linux. >> >>Has anyone with a 2year old Laptop from Toshiba (Satellite A105) already messed around with >>installing their modem under linux, to help? I will write what I find listed thru Vista >>about the modem, its 'drivers', how it reports back on query, etc. below. I dont think the >>scanmodem tool is going to suffice since it is reporting the wrong, non-dependant sound card. >> >Is there such a thing as figuring out where this Realtek Sound Program physically is in the Toshiba >setup, copying it on a disk, and making WINE open it to work under LINUX?
